2.Naquaima - Season going backwards in a hurry
3.Hoeter - not yet thanks
4.Lawrence - boy he tries hard - but its over
5.Richards - makes more yards going backwards than forward nowadays
6.Moses - Run son, run
7.Brookes - he may be the next big thing as a 1/2, but a dummy half he aint
13.Tapau - runs out of gas quicker than my V8
12.Sironen - Words dessert me
11.Lovett - please refer to no 3
10. Sue / Ava - Plodders
9. Halatau - Picked as captain and no 9, ended up playing about 4 1/2
8. Lodge - these arent boys son, they are men
Galloway - said it was time to stand up, but decided to stand down
Simona - can rotate with Nofa, 1 week in , 1 week out

Hoeter wasn't the problem nor were our halves, no idiot shifts their halfback to hooker when he already has all the pressure in the world on his shoulders.

Moses ia a beast, that chip chase was great to see, alao his pass to Sironen, he needs freedom.

I think what we got out of that game is that Moses should be controlling our attack and Brooks should chime in whenever, thats how it was when they were juniors and I think that would work better.

Simple , he got to the ball too quickly

Then dive earlier?

It was just one of those things Milky , the guys chased for 40 metres hoping to get the right bounce when he arrives and he didn't , he basically yorked himself , it really didn't have to do with diving

Kev has about .5 a second to make a call , with hindsight he might of been better trying to block the ball off until it crossed the line and if the defender behind you hits you , you might get the penalty try call , but that's a big risk to take , especially with how getting the 50-50 calls has been with refs lately

Also you can't tell exactly how far in front of the other guy you are. Naiqama does not have the sweetest hands, though he is a good athlete, the bounce just wasn't where he predicted.

Well, what a symphony of negativity you are.

Not one word of praise, support or constructive criticism for anyone in the whole team except for Teddy.

We have a big job indeed - finding another 16 players for the next game and I would presume a new coach.
